EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bravery and determination of the London Fire Brigade during the intense Blitz of World War II. The scene is set at Youngs Glue Factory, located on Grange Road in Bermondsey, on the fateful day of October 12, 1940. The fire had broken out at the front of the building near the boiler house, sending thick black smoke billowing into the London sky. The firefighters, clad in their iconic tin helmets and wet coats, are seen working tirelessly to extinguish the flames. They are focused on their task, their faces etched with concentration and resolve. The water jet from the hose is aimed directly at the heart of the fire, while another firefighter adjusts the pipe. Debris and rubble litter the ground, a stark reminder of the destruction wrought by the bombing raids. The aerial view of the scene provides a unique perspective, allowing us to fully appreciate the scale of the operation. The firefighters' unwavering commitment to their duty is a testament to the resilience and fortitude of the people of London during this dark period in history. This powerful image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the brave men and women of the fire service during the Blitz.
